<a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/index.html">Fueled by Rice</a> - Five recent grads from the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's Unviersity recently set off from Beijing to <a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/route.html">bike across Asia and Europe</a>. The <a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/missionstatement.html">goal</a> of their bike trip is to spread international good will on the local level and advocate reducing carbon emissions and living slower-paced, more enjoyable lives. Along the way they will bike through rural areas and play <a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/music.html">music</a> in villages. As they travel, the group is posting <a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/gallery2/main.php">photos</a>, a <a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/blog">blog</a>, and will attempt to get a podcast up and running. They've even got the site up in <a href="http://fueledbyrice.org/homezhwen.html">Chinese</a>, though the site <a href="http://www.fueledbyrice.org/blog/?p=14">seems to be blocked</a> for most folks in China. tag:metafilter.com,2007:site.64771Mon, 17 Sep 2007 12:15:33 -0800pithy commentNutcracker Suitehttp://www.metafilter.com/56601/Nutcracker%2DSuite
